In Temple is a gem of a hike known of the White Ledges. From Route 45 in Temple you turn onto Howard Hill Road and drive a tenth of a mile to the trailhead. Which is an old dirt road. You park on the left side of Howard Hill Road. You walk up the old dirt road. There will be a house on your right as you walk. About a quarter mile down you will come to a gate, which you continue through and up the trail for another quarter mile.
Right before you get to the ledges look off to your left for a view of Pack Monadnock.
Once at the top there there is a good size out cropping of white rock. This is such a fun place for kids to climb and explore.
There is a decent view looking towards Wilton, Milford, Manchester and Nashua. More recently it has become my favorite place to watch the sunrise.
I have also gone up here to view the moon and star gaze. The trail is only a little over a half mile to the top so it is perfect for children or those looking for a short hike with a great view.
